MARKET MAKERS ARE SHORT.
"When I worked in the old Stock Exchange in Throgmorton Street, in 19 hundred and frozen to death, I was often asked to check on a stock showing an abnormal rise. I would approach the jobber (market maker) and pose the question. Their answers were all the same. "More buyers than sellers" That concept no longer applies with AIM. Clearly all the market makers are holding short positions and the last thing they want is the SP to rise. So they keep the SP low, soak up the stock from the silly sellers and when they are flush with stock, let the SP rip".
